- Prep: 5 mins
- Cook: 12 hrs
- Yields: 1 Quart
Directions
1Put the kefir grains and milk into a glass jar. Cover tightly.
2Set out at room temperature for 12 for 24 hours.
3It takes less time in warm weather than in cold weather.
4Put in a place that is not in direct sunlight.
5Shake the kefir gently a couple of times if you remember.
6When the kefir is ready, you will see kefir grains coagulate at the top of the jar.
7Separate these grains and put into a separate container for your next batch.
8You can strain the grains out by using a strainer or colander.
9Kefir will last 3-4 weeks in your fridge.
Juicy Tips & Why It's Fab:
- I'm a fan of using Cultures for Health Water Kefir Grains
- Use the grains (up to 7 times) to make another batch of kefir, or you can store them for use at a later time.
- Storing Kefir Grains: If you’d like to store kefir grains, rinse them well with water and place in a small Ball jar with about a half a cup of filtered water. Store in the refrigerator for several weeks or in the freezer for several months. When ready to use again, pull out from storage, defrost and drain grains to use in above directions.
- Additional tip: The best made kefir is the one made in your home. Store bought kefir is full of sugar that feed unnecessary bacteria and cancer growth (unless you get the sugar free kin.) Always be sure to check the backs of those nutrition facts and ingredients abels at the store to see what you’re really putting in your body.
